Sponsor a Child in the Philippines

A child in the Philippines needs your help. Reach across the miles to offer your support!

Life in the Philippines

The Philippine archipelago comprises 7,107 islands in the western Pacific Ocean. Poverty is most severe and pervasive in rural areas, where nearly 80 percent of the country's poor live.

Illiteracy, unemployment and poverty are highest among indigenous people.

More than a third of the country's population lives in poverty.

Nearly half the population survives on less than U.S.$2 a day
